WILLIAM O. ANDERSON, 011 DETROIT, MICHIGAN SANITARY RAZOR STRO]? I-IOLDER,

Application filed April 19,

The present invention pertains to a novel sanitary razor strop holder and receiver.

The primary object of the present invention is to devise a razor strop holder which may be conveniently attached to the chair in a barber shop or to the wall of a room in a private dwelling to receive and enclose the razor strop when it is not in use and preserve it in sanitary condition by preventing dust, cut hair or the clothes of persons passing by or the barber from contacting with the same.

In addition to preserving the strop in sanitary condition in the above manner, the present holder is constructed to contain a suitable disinfecting or fumigating substance for the extermination of any germs which might otherwise be carried from the strop by the razor to the face of the person being shaved.

With the above and other ends in view,

29 the invention consists in the matters hereinafter set forth and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of a barbers chair with the present razor strop holder attached thereto;

Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the present holder, being partly broken away and in cross sect-ion; and

Fig. 3 is a transverse cross sectional View taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.

Like characters of reference are employed throughout to designate the corresponding parts.

The numeral 1 indicates a. casing which is rectangular in cross section as clearly illustrated in Fig. 3, the casing being closed at the top and having outwardly projecting flanges 2 facilitating its attachment to the arm of the barbers chair 3. When it is desired to use the present holder for domestic use the flanges 2 will be formed in a plane parallel to the face of the rear face of the casing as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2 in order to facilitate its attachment to a wall.

The bottom of the casing 1 has an open mouth in which is inserted a box 4. and a bolt 5 having a wing nut 6 to readily permit removal is provided to secure the box in the lower end of the casing. The box is 1930. Serial No. 445,591.

' to receive the bolt 9 upon which ismounted a disk '10 that is received behind the angle strips 8 in a manner whereby the angle strips serve as guides permitting sliding movement of said disk: The bolt 9 is attached at its other .end to the razor strop 1'1.

g The frontwall of the casing 1 is providedwith aV D-shaped opening. adjacent its'upper end and through this opening the handle-12 of the razor strop projects while-the remainder of the strop is enclosed in the easing, the opening being so shaped to permit the strop to be turned over in order that both faces of the same may be used.

It becomes apparent from the foregoing that the razor strop is enclosed in a manner preventing impurities or dust particles carried by the air from contacting with the same when it is not in use while fumes from the substance contained in the box 4: are disinfecting the strop. TV hen it is desired to use the strop it is only necessary to pull it out by grasping the handlewhich causes the disk 10 to slide in the guide provided by the angle strips 8 which serve as an attachment for the strop permitting stropping of the razor. 7

Although a specific embodiment of the present invention has been illustrated and I side said casing, a disk received in said guide strips, a razor strop vattached to said disk, and an opening in the front Wall of said casing through which the razor strop handle ordinarily projects.

3'. A device of the character described, comprising a casing, guide strips mounted inside'said casing, a disk received in said guide strips, arazor.strop attached to-sa'id disk, and a receptacle removably mounted in the lower portion of said casing and adapted to recelve a disinfecting substance.
